Abstract

The article presents some new fasts concerning the history of portrait of the outstanding Russian church hierarch of the fi rst third of the 19-th century Metropolitan of Kiev and Galich Eugeny (Bolkhovitinov, 1767–1837) from the collection of the Pushkin House Literary Museum. According to the museum documents, the portrait is a posthumous copy, painted by the artist Kalashnikov in 1837, commissioned the Imperial Russian Academy from the “original kept was in the archpriests’ house in Kiev”. The study was mostly based on the documents from the Russian Academy archive (the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg Branch) concerning the creation of the Metropolitan’s portrait, on some rare graphic materials from the collection one of the fi rst researchers of the Russian Academy portrait gallery — B. L. Modzalevsky (1874–1928), which are now kept in the Literary Museum. On the basis of the comparative analysis of Bolkhovitinov’s portraits from the collections of the National Kiev-Pechersk Historical and Cultural Preserve (Kiev, Ukraine), the State Historical Museum (Moscow) and the Pushkin House Literary Museum and on the study of a number of current and pre-revolution sources and publications it has been found that the copy for the Russian Academy was painted by the painter and lithographer A. A. Kalashnikov (1795–1852) from the portrait, which goes back to the lost original by the Academician of Painting I. V. Bugaevskij -Blagodarny (1780–1860) from the collection of the Voronezh Province Museum.
